The world lost a powerful, loving voice today with the passing of Maya Angelou. The poet, performer, and political activist died at the age of 86 after a long illness.
"Shadows on the wall
Noises down the hall
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Bad dogs barking loud
Big ghosts in a cloud
Life doesn't frighten me at
all."
-- from "Life Doesn't
Frighten Me"
Reading and sharing her words, whether one of her autobiographies, a collection of her poems, or her stories of times gone by, keeps her memory alive.
